00:00Last bell rings, we take our time.
00:04Packing books are way too slow.
00:11Hey, the honeymoon is over, you two cuties.
00:18Hey, sugar.
00:20Listen up.
00:21No matter what they do to you, don't fight back.
00:24Don't drag me into your shit.
00:27I get it, Jason.
00:30This was supposed to be my big day.
00:31Marrying into the Shepherds, finally a home, then the kidnapping.
00:35Jason, he never wanted me.
00:37He only married me because my sister ran off.
00:39Him throwing me under the bus?
00:40Yeah, I saw it coming.
00:46We've been cooped up in this damn warehouse forever,
00:49and we've never seen such a good-looking guy.
00:53Claire, save me!
00:55Jason!
00:56No matter what they do to you, don't fight back!
00:58Your life's worth more than your damn pride!
01:01No!
01:24He's hurt too bad.
01:26He'll never be able to have kids again.
01:33Claire! God damn it!
01:35If you hadn't gone with him to inspect the oil fields, how would my son have ended up like this?
01:40You didn't just ruin Jason. You've completely destroyed the entire Shepard family legacy.
01:45It's all my fault. I've ruined Jason, please. Let's get a divorce. I have no idea how to fix this.
01:52Hell no! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be ruined.
01:55You think you can just walk away scut-free? Not a fucking chance!
01:58Mom, I'm never divorcing her. She's gotta wait on me for the rest of my life.
02:03That's right. You're not leaving the Shepard family. Never.
02:16You've gotta wait on Jason for the rest of your life!
02:20Be a free maid for the Shepard family!
02:24Get out!
02:41I can't go on like this.
02:43The reason Evelyn's torturing me is because she's lonely.
02:52When she's got some love in her life, no matter how harsh she is, she'll soften up.
03:06Stick around with Evelyn.
03:08Spend some quality time with her, and this check is all yours.
03:19I love you.
03:22I love you, too.
03:31Perfect. Now she's got her mind on other things.
03:34The trust signature will be mine in no time.
03:37Jason's turn now.
03:40However, Jason hated me to the core.
03:52Jason loathes me.
03:53He's lost control and has nowhere to let out his anger.
03:57So he treats me badly.
04:00Jason and I are family.
04:02There's no way I can be happy while he's suffering alone.
04:07I'm here to see Cole.
04:11Be Jason's personal bodyguard, and do whatever he asks.
04:17I'll pay off all your medical debts.
04:31Jason!
04:32What's wrong with you?
04:33Why are you screaming so loud?
04:34Don't scare me!
04:35Get out!
04:36Don't ruin my fun!
04:38You can't get a man, but I sure as hell can!
04:43All right then, Jason.
04:45Enjoy your time with Cole.
04:46I'll go sort out the family account.
04:55Jason's obsessed with pleasure,
04:57and Evelyn doesn't care about the family business.
04:59All these oil fields and ranches will be mined sooner or later.
05:03$10,000 a month for Cole,
05:05plus a sponsorship for Rose.
05:07Spending money for peace of mind.
05:09Totally worth it.
05:12Madam!
05:13Mrs. Evelyn has been feeling nauseous and vomiting these days.
05:16She can't eat anything.
05:20Hurry and get the doctor!
05:40Mrs. Evelyn's been a widow for years.
05:47How in the world could she be pregnant?
05:49Take another look.
05:50Could it be bloating?
05:52When you get old,
05:53your intestines tend to act up.
05:54Ain't nothing serious.
06:05You're absolutely right, madam.
06:06My eyes are getting old.
06:08Mrs. Evelyn just got bloating.
06:10Master, from what I can tell,
06:11Mrs. Evelyn's symptoms don't look like bloating.
06:13Am I the master or are you?
06:15Oh my, we're scared.
06:16Who the hell asked for your two cents?
06:19Silly boy.
06:19Talking nonsense again and making your master angry?
06:22Come on.
06:23Sister, I'll buy you a treat.
06:24Doctor, this child can't stay.
06:26If it does,
06:27the whole damn Shepard family's reputation will be ruined.
06:29I know, I know.
06:30Now that Jason's messed up,
06:32I can't have kids.
06:33Even though the child in Evelyn's belly is a bastard,
06:36it's the only heir to our family.
06:38Brother,
06:39I need you to do me a favor.
06:42You want me to switch out Mrs. Evelyn's abortion pills?
06:45She needs to keep the baby.
06:51How did you get so sharp?
06:57Who was the one calling me nonsense earlier?
07:00I was wrong, brother.
07:02I'm sorry.
07:02Think about it.
07:03Evelyn's getting old.
07:04Taking abortion pills would be dangerous for her.
07:06I can't let nothing happen to her.
07:07Someday, I want to marry someone as kind as you.
07:12Silly boy.
07:13Talking nonsense again.
07:16This is the medicine the doctor prescribed for you.
07:19Please take it.
07:28I can't breathe.
07:29I took the pills.
07:31Why is this happening?
07:37Mom!
07:38What the fuck is that in your belly?
07:40Who the hell's bastard is this?
07:48Jason, calm down.
07:50Evelyn is only thinking about the Shepard family.
07:52Why don't we keep the baby?
07:53That way, we'll have an heir.
07:54And Evelyn can treat her son like a grandson
07:55without being separated from her own flesh and blood.
07:58Hell no!
07:59I'll never let this bastard
08:01inherit the Shepard family's property.
08:03If anyone's going to have a baby,
08:05it's got to be you.
08:06What does he mean by that?
08:08He still wants a baby with me?
08:16Have a baby with him!
08:18I'll raise it!
08:19And we'll pass it off as ours!
08:23I knew it.
08:23The reason Jason refused to let the kid inherit the family business
08:26is because of Cole.
08:27Makes sense.
08:28Jason's head over wheels for Cole.
08:29Of course he wants Cole's blood to inherit the family.
08:40Claire, just hold on a little longer.
08:43No matter what happens between you and Cole,
08:45I'm never going to abandon you.
09:03Did you hear what your master said just now?
09:06Madam, I dare can't.
09:07You saved my life.
09:09If it weren't for your generosity back then,
09:11I would have died from illness ages ago.
09:13If he asks,
09:14tell him we did everything,
09:16but unfortunately you didn't get me pregnant.
09:19What a pity.
09:25Madam,
09:26how do I compare to Jason?
09:28Madam,
09:29don't sleep.
09:30We can't get pregnant like this.
09:36You slit!
09:37You dare say you don't like it!
09:38You were enjoying it just now!
09:40Last night I finally understood what marriage is like.
09:43Darling,
09:44can you really bear to share me with others?
09:47Get out!
09:48I'll never let you touch him again!
09:53What a buzzkill.
09:57It's been three whole months
09:58and not a single step forward on our plan.
10:00She's definitely doing this on purpose.
10:02All just to weagle her way in with you.
10:06Cole,
10:07I don't want you to touch her,
10:08but we really need a baby.
10:21Claire,
10:22this is unfair.
10:24If it weren't for you,
10:25would I have to go through pregnancy at this age?
10:28Evelyn,
10:29what are you blubbering about?
10:30Did I twist your arm to cheat on your late husband?
10:33Besides,
10:34what woman doesn't have children?
10:36What's wrong with having a baby at almost 50?
10:39Was it you?
10:40Did you do this on purpose?
10:42As a wife,
10:42you can't even keep your own husband under control.
10:45What good are you to the Shepard family?
10:47Evelyn,
10:47for the past year I've been running the entire Shepard family's household and business all by myself.
10:52The profits have tripled.
10:55What?
10:56Tripled?
10:57You and Jason only about fooling around all day.
10:59Do you have any idea how hard I work to keep this family running?
11:02So what?
11:03You ruined my boy's chance to have kids.
11:05This is the very least you owe him.
11:06You're going to be working for the Shepard family for the rest of your life.
11:09Evelyn,
11:09you're right.
11:10A woman with no heir is just stuck.
11:12Please,
11:12give us a boy.
11:14You don't want the Shuperd fortune going to distant cousins, do you?
11:18Don't worry,
11:19I'll love him like my own.
11:22My stomach hurts.
11:23I'm going into labor.
11:25Hurry.
11:25Get the doctor.
11:27I'm going to have a son.
11:28Yes,
11:29go.
11:30Go.
11:30Go.
11:30Go.
11:32Go.
11:44Didn't she take those abortion pills ages ago?
11:47How is this possible?
11:50Calm down,
11:51doctor.
11:52I'm the one who asked him to swap Evelyn's abortion pills for prenatal vitamins.
11:58You.
11:59Both of you.
12:00You're going to get me into huge trouble.
12:07Hurry up and get the surgical tools ready.
12:09They're all ready to go.
12:13Evelyn,
12:13quit screaming.
12:14Save your strength for when it counts.
12:20Madam,
12:20Mrs.
12:21Evelyn gave birth.
12:22Is it a boy?
12:23Hurry,
12:23let me hold him.
12:24Let me hold him.
12:25Let me hold him.
12:29Let me hold him.
12:31Why is it a girl?
12:36Madam,
12:37I did my best.
12:38Whether it's a boy or a girl,
12:39it's not something we can control.
12:40You're right.
12:41I can't blame you.
12:42How is Evelyn?
12:43Will she be able to-
12:44Madam,
12:45Evelyn is up there in years.
12:46She'll never be able to have another child,
12:48ever.
12:49That's such a pity.
12:50Is this really my fate?
12:52Should I switch this baby girl with a baby boy?
12:57Take good care of her and Mrs. Evelyn.
13:00My little sister-in-law is still young.
13:02She shouldn't grow up without a mom.
13:04Yes,
13:05madam.
13:08Claire,
13:08you got some nerve!
13:11Jason,
13:12come quick!
13:13Evelyn gave birth to a baby sister for us.
13:15What did you-
13:15What did you say?
13:16Evelyn had a baby!
13:20This is my baby sister?
13:22I have a baby sister!
13:24Why don't we take her in and raise her as our own?
13:28If only Cole and I could have our own baby, too.
13:31Evelyn is getting old and doesn't have the energy to take care of the baby.
13:34Why don't we take her back and raise her as our own?
13:36Hell no!
13:37Tomorrow,
13:38you go to the churchvation,
13:39leave baby by the looter,
13:40and then bring her away.
13:42Pretend we found her.
13:46Jason.
13:47You betrayed me and ruined our family's reputation.
13:51From today on,
13:52you will move into the parish house.
13:53You will never leave again.
13:58Jason!
13:59I'm your birth mother!
14:01You can't treat me like this!
14:05You're just jealous that Evelyn can have kids and you can't!
14:08You want to steal her biological child and tear them apart?
14:11Don't try to stir up trouble between Jason and me!
14:13Jason is just angry.
14:15He'll forgive me sooner or later.
14:16He'll forgive me sooner or later.
14:24No.
14:27No.
14:28No.
14:28No.
14:35Take this baby and leave her at the church gate.
14:37Yes.
15:09Greetings, Mrs. Grant.
15:10I saw this baby first.
15:13Dear child,
15:14I know you're kind.
15:14But you're still young.
15:16You'll have your own children.
15:17My son has no daughters.
15:18Only one son.
15:19This baby will be perfect for him.
15:21From now on,
15:22she'll be a young miss of the Grant family.
15:24When I said I hated that the baby was a girl,
15:27I was just throwing a fit.
15:28During the month Jason kept her,
15:30I already grew attached to her.
15:31But even though the Shepard family is wealthy,
15:33we're just ordinary businessmen.
15:36Nothing compared to the Grant family.
15:39I'll do as you say, Mrs. Grant.
15:43Jason,
15:44we really are destined to have no heirs after all.
15:49I'm so useless.
15:50I can't have kids.
15:52Couldn't even keep my mother-in-law's daughter.
15:54What's the point of making all this money?
15:56I'll just get bullied in my old age with no kids around.
16:00Jason doesn't love me.
16:01I have no family.
16:02Should I really adopt a distant relative?
16:14Get out of my way!
16:17Sis, please forgive me.
16:20I heard you were here and came to visit.
16:22I'm sorry for disturbing you.
16:25Forgive me if I intruded.
16:29Sister?
16:30Sister, have you forgotten?
16:32I'm Liam.
16:33Jason's cousin.
16:35We met briefly at the family meeting earlier this year.
16:38He looks so much like him.
16:40Even if Jason had a child himself,
16:43he couldn't look this similar.
16:44If only Liam were my son with Jason,
16:47then the Shepard family would have an heir.
16:52Liam!
16:53What brings you to see me, dear brother?
16:56My dad was head of security for the Texas oil fields.
17:00He died on patrol at the border oil fields when I was six.
17:04Mom's terrified I'll follow his path so she wouldn't let me work in security or oil fields,
17:08making me study law and run for office instead.
17:12But when I got to Houston,
17:15I found this place is pricey.
17:17My savings from back home are all gone.
17:20Now I crash at a church shelter,
17:23helping the priests sort through papers just to scrape by.
17:26This place is so expensive.
17:27I've blown through all my savings from back home.
17:29The state senate primary is right around the corner.
17:32And if I'm stuck stressing about food and rent non-stop,
17:35I'll never focus on the campaign.
17:37I don't mind hard work.
17:39I just hate the thought of failing my mom.
17:43Liam, terminal talking.
17:45I get it.
17:46Go pack your things right now and come back to the mansion with me.
17:49You can stay with me for now.
17:51How could I trouble you like that, sis?
17:53I only came to borrow some money.
17:54I'll pay you back once I'm elected.
17:56I can't possibly...
17:58You called me sis.
17:59Why are you being so polite?
18:00You look so much like Jason.
18:02When I see you, it's like seeing my own son.
18:04Sis, you're joking.
18:05I'm only one year younger than Jason,
18:07and even one year older than you.
18:09It's just like you've only been married for a year.
18:11It's normal not have kids yet.
18:15You don't understand.
18:18Jason and I will never have our own children.
18:23See to Master Liam properly.
18:24Hand to deliver his three meals every day.
18:26Don't let the other servants in the house run their mouths about him.
18:29And above all, keep him well clear of Jason.
18:32Don't worry, sis.
18:33I will just stay in the villa to prepare for the election every day.
18:36Today I won't wander around casually.
18:43Jason, it's all my fault.
18:45I never expected to run into Mrs. Grant today.
18:47Now that Mrs. Grant has the baby,
18:49our little sisters could grow up as a Grant family young, Raid.
18:51Raid, what are we going to do?
18:52You useless iddo!
18:54You can't even handle something this basic!
18:56Fine!
18:57Who'd have thought that kid gets so lucky?
18:59Tell every single person in this family to keep their mouths sealed tight.
19:03Not one word of this gets out, understand?
19:06By the way, Jason,
19:07I brought Liam back to the mansion to help him prepare for the election.
19:11Finally got your head on straight.
19:14Liam is the hope of our family.
19:16Don't you dare drop the ball with him.
19:18Transfer $10,000 a month from my personal account to fund him.
19:22Don't worry, Jason.
19:23I'll take good care of Liam.
19:29Cole, come here.
19:30Don't just stand there.
19:32This woman is so trawl.
19:33The fan's my desk.
19:35Let me horse when the yard relaxes.
19:49I remember your A-prod ended yesterday.
19:52The timing's perfect.
19:53Let's hope you don't let me down again.
20:01Jason really does love me.
20:03He's dead set on having a child with me to inherit the Shepard family.
20:07For that, he's even willing to let the man he loves be with me.
20:11What more could a wife ask for?
20:23Cole, I think it's time for me to have a baby for the Shepard family.
20:26On my own terms.
20:28Madam, please don't give me a hard time.
20:30You know I don't swing that way with women.
20:31My cousin is still waiting for me back home.
20:33I already feel guilty enough for serving Jason if I have to serve you too.
20:36I didn't say I was going to have a baby with you.
20:39But you have to say that the baby is yours and mine.
20:42Madam, you mean you're going to hook up with someone else?
20:45If Jason finds out, he'll kill you dead.
20:47I didn't expect you to care about me this much.
20:49Of course I do.
20:50We're practically sisters, having to share a room every month.
20:54Besides, you're my savior.
20:55I can't just sit by and watch you die.
20:57It'll be fine.
20:58As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will ever find out.
21:04Liam's a dead ringer for Jason.
21:06The baby we have will definitely look like Jason too.
21:35Sis, you're bringing me food again?
21:39I'm so sorry.
21:41Someday when I make something of myself, I'll pay you back.
21:44I promise.
21:45No need for someday.
21:47Pay me back now.
21:49Truth is, Jason got jumped by robbers earlier this year.
21:52Got hurt real bad.
21:53He can't have kids anymore.
21:56The Shepard family's only had one heir for three generations.
21:59Can you stand to see our family die out?
22:02This ain't just my wish.
22:04It's Jason's too.
22:05Otherwise, why do you think he's sending you ten grand a month from his personal safe to fund you?
22:17Shame, shame, you're trying to play with my emotion.
22:22Play, blame, only for your luck of devotion.
22:27This is only once.
22:29From now on, we're even.
22:31Relax.
22:32I never planned to have too much to do with you in the first place.
22:36I love Jason deeply.
22:38This is just a deal where we each get what we need.
22:42You help me keep the Shepard line going, I get you elected.
22:46Once it's done, we're square.
22:59Didn't expect I'd fail again.
23:07One more time.
23:37What's wrong?
23:39Why are your hands shaking like a leaf?
23:41Nothing, Jason.
23:43Looks like a fish is fixing a bite.
23:47Madam, for the love of God, quit messing with me.
23:50My poor heart can't take another one of your schemes.
24:04We need to try again.
24:05One last time.
24:07If it doesn't work, I'll find another way, but I'd rather it be you.
24:13You need me.
24:15And I need this baby.
24:29I never thought Liam would go at it 17 times a night just to get rid of me for good.
24:48Is the madam pregnant?
24:50Hell yeah.
24:51Must be Mr. Coles.
24:53The young masters head over heels for him.
24:56And now they've got an heir.
25:02Mind your own business.
25:04Get back to work.
25:15Great.
25:18Great.
25:18Great.
25:19We're going to have our own baby soon.
25:26Man, he's really head over heels for him.
25:29And I low-key love that for him.
25:34Please let this baby look like Jason.
25:44Please.
25:45Please.
25:46Please.
25:47Please.
25:49Please.
25:49Please.
25:50Please.
25:52Please.
25:58This kid is just as stubborn as his dad.
26:02The morning sickness is so bad, I can't keep anything down.
26:11Liam?
26:12What the hell are you doing here?
26:14When you need me, you call me my dear sweetheart.
26:18But when you don't, you just brush me off.
26:21With a simple Liam?
26:26What's his deal?
26:27We said we were even.
26:28We were supposed to go our separate ways.
26:36Are you out of your goddamn mind?
26:38Busting in here like this.
26:40If Jason finds us, we're both dead meat.
26:42Get the hell out.
26:43If I hadn't come, were you planning to throw up all night like this?
26:46I ain't gonna let my kids suffer with you before they're even born.
26:54These are preserved plums I made myself following my mom's recipe.
26:58She ate these when she was pregnant with me.
27:04They say if you're craving sour stuff, it's a boy.
27:07I'm dying for sour things lately.
27:09This baby's gotta be a boy, right?
27:11I really don't want to be a bother to you anymore.
27:14You think being with me is such a hassle?
27:17Oh, cut it out.
27:19I'm your cousin's wife.
27:20And I love Jason with all my heart.
27:23I'd never do anything to betray him.
27:25Not for anything.
27:26If we didn't need a kid.
27:34He's still just a hot-headed kid.
27:36Good Rinnis.
27:38Anyway, I'm pregnant now and don't need him anymore.
27:43I hope he wins a name for himself and gets the hell out of Shepard Manon.
27:47Never want to see his face again.
27:49Claire!
27:50Claire!
27:50I won!
27:51I'm gonna be the next Texas State Senator!
27:57We pulled it off!
27:58We crushed the opponent by a landslide!
28:00I actually won!
28:01This is all thanks to you.
28:02If it weren't for your funding, your team, your advice, I never would have won.
28:06That's amazing, Liam.
28:07These are marriage proposals from all the top families in Texas.
28:10See if any of them catch your eye.
28:11Claire, you're still carrying our baby.
28:14How could I ever think about seeing other women?
28:17This kid, he'll blurt it out anything without thinking.
28:22Are you brain dead?
28:23You can't go spouting shit like that in public.
28:25If anyone hears, you'll lose your senator's seat and my baby won't make it out alive.
28:28I don't give a damn about the seat.
28:30I just need you to know I didn't do this for money or power.
28:33The kid's mine and so are you.
28:34I'm never letting you go.
28:36Cut the crap.
28:56His legal name is Wyatt Shepard and we're calling him Jax for short.
29:01He's my son.
29:02Why do you get to name him?
29:04I should be the one to name him.
29:05Jason, let him have this.
29:07Come on, think how impressive it'll sound.
29:10Our son's name was chosen by a sitting state senator.
29:19But I get to pick his middle name.
29:21How about Cole?
29:24After my best guy.
29:29Thank you, Jason.
29:30It's an honor.
29:35Liam's a natural at politics.
29:38In less than five years, he's already senior advisor to the Texas Secretary of State.
29:43And he's stuck around Shepard Manon this whole time.
29:46Never moved out.
29:48Turned down every marriage proposal from Texas' richest hillicoons.
29:53And he still climbs over the wall into my room every single night.
30:00To everyone else, this baby is still yours.
30:03Madam, this is your third pregnancy.
30:05And I've been the fall guy dad for five years now.
30:09When the hell am I going to get to step down?
30:11For five years, Jason's been jealous nonstop.
30:15He slashes me every now and then.
30:18And my face looks like a damn tabby cat.
30:24What does he mean to hear?
30:27I'll let you step down for sure.
30:30I'll give you a fat stack of cash then.
30:33And you can go back home to live happily ever after with your cousin.
30:38Isn't that better?
30:48Jason, Claire is pregnant again.
30:53It's mine.
